I can't believe you've belonged to so many of them!<BR/><BR/>Since you appear to love books as much as I do, you may want to check out my site:<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://bookwise.iloveeasymoney.com" REL="nofollow">BookWise - A Book Club That Pays</A>Lori Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421420313227703481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25139444.post-3832676666650799462007-04-28T05:49:00.000+03:002007-04-28T05:49:00.000+03:00A book club devoted to things other than books.

Was it the lack of book quantity or the annoying people that forced this change? :-) <BR/><BR/>Well, I am not sure if this is of interest but my wife and her friends are always talking about book clubs so we built an on-line community for book clubs, discussions, and reviews. We call it <A HREF="http://CurlingUp.com" REL="nofollow">CurlingUp.com</A> . I can't guarantee no annoying people but so far it has been good. We are really new (just about a month) but have already had an article in the Sacramento Bee written about us. You can read the article <A HREF="http://www.sacbee.com/107/story/158001.html" REL="nofollow">here</A>.<BR/><BR/>Visit us and let us know what you think.

I'm not proposing to rescind my membership to CFKAB, I just think that a goody-good splinter group might emerge out of the book club's revamping.<BR/><BR/>Did you know that there is a contingent of us proposing the formation of "Book Club away from Book Club?" Though, I suppose to be true to the new naming convention this break away group would now have to be called "Book Club away from CFKAB"? It will probably never get off the ground since we've targeted heady, dense scholarly books all over again. You'd think we'd have learned the first time. Karibu if you feel up to perhaps making the same mistake twice!lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06365081148494438727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25139444.post-28892602692654616362007-04-23T22:25:00.000+03:002007-04-23T22:25:00.000+03:00I love this so much!
